Already a billionaire, Trump plans to steal $10 billion from US taxpayers with his lawsuit agains the IRS. Every republican on the ballot needs to be asked whether they are in favor of Trump stealing this money from the American people.

Trump's war on cheap clean energy and efforts to prop up expensive dirty coal mean everyone has to pay more for more pollution and worsened climate change.

Basically, no one should support Trump's climate policies unless you're a coal executive.

You know what is the ultimate anti-woke activity: raping kids with Epstein. This is why Trump has such a strong hold on his followers. He lives the anti-woke dream.

The GOP is the party of billionaire pedophiles. Anyone who isn't a billionaire and a pedophile, should be voting blue.

We are all upset about current threats to our democracy and climate. So upset we may be considering giving up in despair. But don't fret. Both of these crises can be resolved by all of us feeling our agency and working together.

Hello? Anybody home?

Climate "hushing" and avoidance has allowed Trump and the fossil industry to destroy decades of effort.

Where is the climate movement? Where are the Democratic politicians?

Vast majorities are concerned about climate change.

Trump has launched an unprecedented assault on the environment. Where’s the pushback?
Climate deniers expected more resistance to the fossil fuel blitz. But Democrats, billionaires and activists have gone silent

The Democratic Party is not some external object for us to complain about. We are the Democratic Party. It is an extension of us. It is the sum of us working together to defend democracy and fight the Trump Regime. Let’s all breathe in that reality together.

Caligula is destroying the country and trying to remake its capital in the image of his own twisted ugliness. He wants to tear down cherished landmarks and erect monuments to himself everywhere. Mad kings will study him for inspiration for centuries to come.

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Why would Trump have funneled sales of the seized Venezuela oil through opaque Qatar bank accounts? Maybe to make it easier to sell the oil to firms with documented histories of bribery and corruption. h/t @johnsmillie42.bsky.social @washingtonpost.com

Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan.

Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”

Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.

If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.
Bovino: "When politicians, community leaders, & some journalists engage in that heated rhetoric we keep talking about, when they make the choice to vilify law enforcement calling law enforcement 'Gestapo' or using the term 'kidnapping,' that is a choice & there are actions & consequences."

Noem:

"An individual approached US border patrol officers... The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently."

Video footage from multiple angles proves that this is outright bullshit.

Alex Pretti did not approach ICE officers nor did he react violently.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Federal agents are pulling over off duty cops based on the color of their skin.

This is not a serious operation to enforce immigration law. It’s a performative show of force and it’s gotten way out of hand.
